Center Street Cemetery has been placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997 by the United States Department of the Interior.

The Civil War Circle is located in the back of the cemetery by the Prince St. wall.  This is dedicated to the memory of nineteen soldiers who gave their lives during the Civil War between 1862 and 1865.
